about

a song for a new season, for growth, and for running straight towards the things that scare you

lyrics

Static almost louder than the music
Static getting louder every time the wipers wave
Crying in the car as I drive home
Cause wouldn't you know I'm no good with change

Passing tall men in tiny cars,
We're headed towards the bridge that takes us home
Little lights on little boats,
And here I am, behind the wheel, alone

Catastrophe takes ahold of me
Simplicity is lost
Easy's never easy for me
Relief's not worth the cost

As the needle breaks the skin, I wince and take my medicine
That's one week down and eighty years to go
If I live to be a hundred, won't I just be one big scar?
Promise you'll call the papers, tell them I grew old

Passing other brave women driving transport trucks
It's just girls on the road tonight
This tired life that we're living, they're just trying to make a buck
I'm just trying to make it home all right

Catastrophe takes ahold of me
Simplicity is lost
Easy's never easy for me
Relief's not worth the cost

I keep trying to tell myself that this is something I need
But I know that without it, I can still get around
The tree in my backyard's so heavy with its new summer leaves
So don't you ever try to tell me change won't weigh me down

Catastrophe takes ahold of me
Simplicity is lost
Easy's never easy for me
Relief's not worth the cost

Change won’t weigh me down
Change won’t weigh me down
Change won’t weigh me down
Change won’t weigh me down

Change won’t weigh me down
Change won’t weigh me down
And the heaviest bough
It's full of birds now
It's full of birds now
It's full of birds now
Full of birds now
